Fall Foliage Pictures - - Oval Red Maple Trees

Here, you see an example of a red maple tree in the wild with an oval canopy. The equivalent specimens for landscape use providing this shape are the "Autumn Blaze" red maple trees. The Latin name for the Autumn Blaze cultivar is variously given as Acer freemanii 'Autumn Blaze' or Acer x freemanii. This fall foliage standout is a fast grower, reportedly tacking on as much as 3 feet per year.
